Shane Khublall Review of Loftus Hall
Was part of a group of 9 visiting this last night...
Was part of a group of 9 visiting this last night for the Paranormal Investigation lockdown. Price 75 per person.Stated that the investigation starts at 8:30pm, but it didn't start until 9:15pm.
5 different room sessions of approx 45 minutes a session, with breaks in between.
As somewhat of a skeptic (but open minded), it was enjoyable to listen to the first 2 guides talk about some of the history of the house, and about people that lived there, as we're quite inexperienced with investigations of this type. Their help with guiding us on questions to ask was very helpful, even though we did not experience much "activity". (Thank you Chris for the demonolgy piece + lady that gave us the session in the tapestry room)
The guides in the final 3 sessions were less experienced than the first two, in terms of answering some questions we had on how to move the investigation forward + on history of the house. The final 2 guides in the final chapel session were downright disinterested, and didn't share any helpful experience with us to help our own investigation, even after us asking them about their experiences. In the last session, the girl made an inappropriate comment about spirits could follow us home. (Her male colleague told her not to say this to us however)
Loftus hall, please invest in training for your staff on history of the hall, presentation skills, and get in people with genuine enthusiasm for what they are doing.
If the guides for the final 3 sessions were as forthcoming with help + experience as the first two guides for a group as clearly as inexperienced as our own, this would be a 4 star review instead of a 2 star review.
A group of 9x 75 is scandalous when your own staff aren't interested in helping with the sessions.
